U.N. Secretary-General: Denying Israel’s right to exist is antisemitism

Attempts to delegitimize Israel is a form of antisemitism, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres said on Wednesday at a high level forum to combat hatred against Jews that was held on the sidelines of the General Assembly.

Modern antisemitism, the UN leader said, expressed “itself in attempts to delegitimize the right of Israel to exist, including calls for its destruction, using the pretext of the situation in the Middle East to target Jews and Jewish symbols.”

Be the first to know –

“The world is also seeing an alarming proliferation of neo-Nazi and white supremacy groups, and of those seeking religious and ethnic domination,” Guterres said at the event hosted by UNESCO. “This is tribalism run amok. Not only are their vile views coming into the mainstream, but the mainstream unfortunately, sometimes, is coming to them.”

Time to disband the Jewnited Nations.

Whether Israel does or does not exist leaves me perfectly cold, but I don't see them making similar statements when it comes to the native Europeans in their lands.
It's time for us to leave the Jewnited Nations and set up a League of Nations with other Western countries.

Lol. The UN spends more time bashing Israel than any other country. It's hardly the "Jewnited Nations"

That is also my observation, generally speaking.

Denying Palestinians’ right to exist what is then? Or Kurds’ right to exist.

Besides Arabs are Semites.

Did Turks give Palestinians self-rule? Israel has

Too much talk around Israel. It's literally just a small Middle-Eastern country, idk why everyone wants to talk about it, especially people aren't Jewish or Arab.
